It contains gold leaf, giving it a luxurious feel, a nice scent, and moisturizing with just one drop. The gold leaf seems to be good for your skin.
Although it is an oil, it doesn't just stay on the surface, but blends into the skin and penetrates well, providing a very high moisturizing effect. It's great for dry skin caused by pollen. The scent is also made from natural ingredients, which is very nice.
I was looking for a beauty oil and tried many different ones, but this one was the right choice. Just apply a very small amount of this thinly all over your face after applying lotion, and your skin will be soft and moisturized in the morning. The citrus scent is soothing while you use it.
I had been interested in this product for a while, and when I found the mini size at a direct store, I was so pleased with it that I'm now buying several full-size bottles. I wasn't a fan of oils, but this one is light and smooth, and can be used on the hair, face, and body. It's also incredibly moisturizing, of course. I've tried many different types, especially on hair, because heavy oils can make it look unclean, but I'm so pleased I've found the best one! I love it so much that I wondered if the gold leaf would be too noticeable on my skin, but it's not at all. The scent is refreshing and uplifting. I think it's such a great product that I often give mini sizes as small thank-you gifts, and they're always very happy. I'll continue to use it.
As the name suggests, it has a clear fragrance. It contains gold leaf, which lifts your spirits. Just when you think it might get on your face, it dissolves away. I apply it first after washing my face and then do my skincare routine. When I wake up in the morning, my skin feels moisturized and supple, and the pores that had been bothering me seem to be less noticeable.
